a bit of saddness

Bella got past me today and ran into the room and came out with Crackers. He didn't survive long after we got him out of her mouth. He was such a good buddy and brought a lot of cheer with his beautiful songs he kept picking up from the local wild birds. He was a friend. He would fly down to sit right next to me a lot. He especially loved seeing what was going on with the computer. I used to put on slide shows for him of all different kinds of birds. He loved music.
He was a bit of a tease however and he would get on the dogs nerves. He would pretend he was trying to take away their toys when they were in the kennel and he was out. He went right up to them. He didn't really have much fear but they did give him space.

Right now the cage looks so empty. and the little box on top with him inside still needs to be taken out and buried under the banana tree. Maybe first thing tomorrow.
